So happy to have a blog published in ADDitude this month!  This one is about a special Mommy and Me teacher, Miss Ellie, who gave me the gift of hope.  While I was tearing my hair out over my child’s hyperactivity, Miss Ellie found the treasure underneath it all.  A huge shout-out during ADHD Awareness Month for all the teachers who have believed in our children and made a difference in their lives!

Isn’t it true that so many obstacles we encounter as parents are just stepping stones? And when we move through them, we get to that place we’re supposed to go, into more knowledge and wisdom? Hoping this quote reminds all of us to go easy on ourselves!

I loved going back in time with my father to the days before all our smart technology existed. A time when family gathered around the radio for entertainment, and a little boy dreamed of going into the motion pictures.
